Sophomore Class Bike Swap

The sophomore class held its annual Bike Swap on May 6 and 7.  They collected consignment items from locals and invited East Burke Sports and Village Sport Shop to bring discounted items as well.  They sold $13,000 in inventory and raised $2000 for the Lyndon Outing Club, the town's local rope-tow ski hill.  They conducted themselves professionally with poise, confidence, and initiative.

Winter Term Send Off

BMA officially recognized its winter term students with a musical round coordinated by Lindley van der Linde and supported by Rachel Norton, Anna Bruce, McKenna Wilson, and Charlotte Mauer.  Anna and McKenna were special participants as they were members of Lindley's first winter term.  The entire dining hall was broken into three groups in order to sing the round.  It was one of our better efforts at coordinated singing! Each student was presented a giant cookie, a BMA tradition.

We wish all of them well as they prepare to depart BMA until next fall.
